The
printed MML Passport is no longer available. However, you may
download a copy from the MML website
here.
The
trail consists of 11 MML Districts (regions).
The MML Geocache Trail project will launch January 1, 2009 with 78
participating cities and towns. A collectible geo coin will be
given to the first 500 geocachers as an incentive for locating at
least 2 municipal caches in each of the 11 districts. To be
eligible for the coin, geocachers must pick up a Passport at any of
the designated county visitor centers. Geocachers must use the
stamp in the cache on their Passports and write down the cache code
word listed in each cache. After at least two municipal caches in
each district are discovered, geocachers may return to one of the
county visitor centers and have their Passports validated to
receive their collectable coin.
For a complete list of participating visitor centers visit the MML
web site at http://www.mdmunicipal.org/mmlhome/index.cfm or MGS web

Poplar Hill Mansion, circa 1795, is the oldest home in
Salisbury. This Federal Period house is owned by the City and
managed by the Friends of Poplar Hill Mansion, Inc., a non-profit
corporation. Poplar Hill Mansion is listed on the National Register
of Historic Places. The Mansion is open for free tours on the first
and third Sundays of each month from 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm. .
Salisbury, the Crossroads of Delmarva, is a growing city with an
exhilaring blend of residential and retail. Life is good on the
Eastern Shore!
Cachers Please Note - The cache is not in the landscaping.
Please do not disturb the shrubbery. Please limit your search to
daylight hours. A female currator lives in the mansion, and we
don't want to frighten her by cachers wandering around outside in
the dark.
